This is the house that most of the Tynes kids were born in. The house has long since disappeared.

Tynes kid to church.



This is the Orr cemetery just north of Orr OK. The three graves in the fore ground are Frankie Valentine Tynes (February 14, 1923 to February 17, 1923), Cleona Arlene Tynes (March 26, 1936 to February 1937), and "Uncle Coloumbus" Tynes (Brother to John Henry Tynes) (February 15, 1855 to ?) As you go through the gate look left. see next picture.

This is where the Tynes family went to church. I've heard many stories about the o' saviour church. I can imagine Papa Tynes driving his old wagon with a bunch of kids to church on Sunday morning. It was used by all denominations so the kids were exposed to lot of different opinions.
